Set your brain to meltdown: come April 25th, New York label Kemado will release a rather superb-looking compilation of skull-crackingly brilliant doom-cum-psych-goes-stoner tremendousness. YES.
Featuring rare/unreleased material from the fuck-me-sideways-amazing likes of Comets On Fire, Black Mountain (pictured), Witch, Dungen and The Fucking Champs, Invaders is sure to be a must-buy for, well, me. And you, if you've any sense.
Invaders comes with liner notes by author Ian Christe, who penned Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal. Sounds FAT. The compilation is launched, kinda, at SXSW's Positively 4th Street on March 18th.
Good-gosh tracklisting:
1 Saviors - 'Circle of Servant's Bodies' 2 Danava - 'By the Mark' 3 Big Business - 'As the Day Was Dawning' 4 Black Mountain - 'Behind the Fall' 5 The Sword - 'Under the Boughs' 6 Dungen - 'Christopher' 7 Witch - 'Rip Van Winkle' 8 The Fucking Champs - 'The Loge' 9 Torche - 'Mentor' 10 Pelican - 'Ran Amber' 11 High on Fire - 'Devilution' (radio edit) 12 Witchcraft - 'Queen of Bees' (live) 13 Comets on Fire - 'Wolf Eyes' (Middle Version) 14 Diamond Nights - '12 Walls' 15 Wolfmother - 'Love Train' 16 Night After Night - 'Backseat Astronaut' 17 Warhammer 48k - 'Get Bodacious' 18 Parchman Farm - 'Curtis Franklin'
